16-18 YEAR OLDS

In this section, students will explore the rich tapestry of Jewish American life, identity, and heritage through a series of engaging activities. They will investigate the historical development of Jewish American identity, examine the role of Jewish Americans in politics, arts, and sciences, and reflect on the influence of the Holocaust and antisemitism on Jewish American communities. Through debates, creative projects, research assignments, and museum visits, students will analyze key themes such as identity, cultural preservation, civil rights, and community resilience. These activities encourage critical thinking, empathy, and a deeper understanding of the Jewish American experience and its ongoing impact on American society.
